Peak Performance, Dimensions & 3A Versatility

Over the years of his competitive career, Ji Ho has mainly relied on heavier and highly stable yo-yos. However, he felt that there was still no model on the market that could perfectly combine the specific wide profile, ideal weight, and extreme stability that he personally desired. This pure motivation to create a high-performance competition yo-yo that reflects exactly what he looks for in a premium weapon drove him to collaborate with C3 and make this dream model a reality.

In terms of design and dimensions, Episteme represents a perfect reinterpretation of modern specs optimized specifically for elite 3A play. Ji Ho felt the critical need for a yo-yo capable of handling a wider variety of intricate tricks and high-speed play, making a wider profile absolutely essential. Featuring a diameter of 55.7 mm, a width of 48.45 mm, and a precision-tuned weight of 69.4 g, it hits the absolute sweet spot for modern competitive play. Thanks to the meticulous weight distribution of the 7075 body and stainless steel rims, it packs an incredibly powerful spin while remaining exceptionally nimble on the string, also delivering outstanding, elite-level performance in 1A and 5A.

For his 3A performances, Ji Ho envisions a balanced style that harmoniously combines both aggressive modern 3A and the traditional mount-based style that has been commonly seen in competitions over the years. Rather than focusing too heavily on one approach, he wants a performance that showcases both aspects in perfect harmony.

To achieve this goal, the Episteme was custom-engineered with the ultimate width and stability required to handle both the wide-ranging, dynamic modern tricks that are becoming popular in 3A and the more traditional, dense mount-based styles. With tremendous raw power and extended spin times, it allows players to execute whatever style of tricks they want with absolute confidence and security on stage.
